Birds at Altitude
pgbnh wrote: I am clearly no expert on bird physiology, but what the heck is a bird breathing at 38,000msl???? Just because he's there doesn't mean he meant to be. I'm guessing that if a bird gets caught up in some lee wave lift (which can exceed 50k) he might just climb and die from hypoxia or temperature. as in 'bird brain'. Pure conjecture though.
